    Electric pump only to prime system...

    Same setup on my old '86 crew cab. The toggle is there when I change a filter or some other fuel part to bleed air before restarting the truck. Zero starting issues or running issues with this combo. Heath

    21 Rally "throw in the hat"

    Well, I don't know if it possible this late in the game and I have to talk to Missy, but we can see what Greenbrier has left in Gatlenburg, TN. Will try and recruit Jared to host with us... LOL But, it's very late to plan a rally. Heath

    2021 Rally "Throw your hat in"

    Need to talk to Missy. But it is now so late in the process, I honestly don't know if it will be possible to get campsites. Plus, Tennessee COVID restrictions limit camping groups to like 10 max IIRC. Heath

    2021 Rally Information

    Well.... the clock is ticking and if someone needs to jump in and get a plan together, it needs to happen soon as campgrounds and sites are gonna be harder and harder to reserve if they aren't held like now! Heath

    2021 Spring Event

    Mike, we are hoping to make it this spring. Will have to see how my call schedule develops for June. Had to work last year. Hope to have dates like today or tomorrow. Heath

    Jasper Engines

    Never had a Jasper Reman'ed IDI. I know their "recent" quality has been poor. However, years ago, they had a good reputation. As long as you aren't having any issues with it.... no worries. Heath

    6.9 idi problems

    I would like to see the size of the radiator too. Did you ever see bubbles in coolant while running? Ever done a used oil analysis? Pretty to find coolant leaking into the oil on UOA. Your oil often won't be milky or have coolant pour out of the oil pan with a head gasket leak. Found a...

    1993 6.9 IDI Compound Turbo ZF5 Manual Bricknose Bronco Build

    Looks like that cylinder ate a glow plug. I'd check the valves and heads in general really well. Never a bad idea to replace the front and rear main seals. Easier to do with the engine on a stand than in the truck. Same is true for the oil cooler. Heath

    7.3 tear down/rebuild (hydrolocked)

    Jake, sucks you're having to completely rebuild the engine. Looks like you're making great progress though. Mel was offering complete ready to drop in reman's with studs and what have you. Wouldn't hurt to call and talk to him or Suzi. Heath

    Modify 7.3 idi vs cummins swap

    https://www.oilburners.net/threads/subways-dt360-into-my-94-f350.75190/ That is the link to Jared's DT360 swap if anyone is interested. A little bird told me the DT F350 may be up for grabs too.:angel: Heath

    Modify 7.3 idi vs cummins swap

    Absolutely man. I wish these rigs came from Ford with the DT360 to be honest. Heath

    Any talk on the 2021 rally?

    So...... I'm guessing John is not hosting in 2021???? If not, Jared and I will be happy to put on the 2021 Rally, unless someone else has a plan. Heath

    Unique Modifications

    Way way back in the somewhere. Did it in 2006 or 2007 I think. Heath

    Any talk on the 2021 rally?

    ? Word from the 2020 rally was you are the 2021 wagon master. Heath

    Got a new beast

    Good bed can be hard to get your hands on. That would look really sharp with a flatbed. Might look at that option if you don't need a true truck box. Heath

    Questions about Facet pump conversion

    Yeah it's the 40223 Duralift. Sorry for the late response. Not on here as much as I used to be. Heath

    Intercooling and CDR

    To avoid all the oil in my intercooler and piping, I ditched the CDR and ran a RDT. Used a Banks CDR hose adapter (bolts to the front of the IP gear housing) and ran a 1 inch hose down and towards the rear of the truck. Heath

    Hard start when the engine is hot

    Excellent question. Not all rebuilds are quality work for sure. First thing I thought was heat soak too. If you pour cool water on the IP when it is hot and it starts easily, your IP isn't properly rebuilt and needs replacement. With heat, the tolerances are too large for adequate function...

    Questions about Facet pump conversion

    Have a Facet on my '86 crew cab with a moose pump and injectors. I run a fuel pressure gauge as well. Never have had any fuel volume or pressure problems and run it with a fuel pressure regulator. It sits on the drivers side frame rail just in front of the FSV. Have run Holley's before...
